Re: (meteorobs) WILL WE SEE GEM FIREBALLS TONIGHT?
This is a great reminder Lew! As I recall, traditionally the Geminids have been
known to produce a fair percentage of fireballs, just on the backside (tonight) of their
maximum. Hopefully, our local weather gurus are correct so that I can nab that
2230 - 0030 observing period. I need to snag a Geminid fireball as I am currently
in a severe fireball drought. Hoping for clearing skies - Felix
